welcome to Navodaya Exam Practice App ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of our users, especially since our application is designed for educational purposes and used by students and teachers. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle user information. 1. Information We Collect • Personal Information: We may collect minimal personal information, such as name and email address, when a user registers or logs into the app using Google Sign-In. This is used solely for secure account creation, progress tracking, and delivering personalized exam scorecards. • Device Information: We do not collect individual device tracking IDs, but standard non-personal analytics data may be processed through Firebase to monitor app performance and crashes. 2. Children's Privacy (Families Policy Compliance) Our app is designed for students preparing for the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya Selection Test (JNVST) (typically aged 9-12) and their teachers/parents. • We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental or teacher guidance. • If Google Sign-In is used, it is intended to be performed under the supervision of a parent, guardian, or teacher. • We do not track children’s location, nor do we share any personal identifiers with third parties. 3. Advertising Policy • This application does not contain any third-party targeted advertisements. • If any educational updates or promotional banners are displayed, they are purely related to exam dates, GRs, or educational resources and do not track user behavior. 4. Data Security and Retention We use secure cloud infrastructure (Google Firebase) to store user authentication and progress data. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or deletion. 5. Data Deletion and User Rights We respect your right to privacy. Users can request the complete deletion of their account and all associated practice data at any time. • To delete your data, you can use the direct "Delete Account" option provided inside the app settings. • Alternatively, you can contact us at: ishanjadhav999@gmail.com, and we will process your deletion request within 48 hours. 6.
